Esteban after being checked into the Sercurity made his way to the tables and chairs. He was going to save a spot for Jenny, that was if she was coming. This party was going to be a bust. Lord what's his face was making a rather big deal about himself. And all he did was yell ALOT when he came into the office. Oh well. That's life...
Esteban sat down at a table by himself and began to look around. To see if he knew anyone who was already here.

| HOLISTIC ACTRESS {X O} EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED Alicia noticed Esteban in the seating area, and walked over. "Hello Esteban!" She smiled, "Mind if I take a seat at the table with you?" She asked noticing it was rather empty.
The fact she new someone there made her oh-so-happy. Almost gleeful!

She smiled. Was this... person speaking to HIM? Damien looked around a few times to be sure and then turned his glare to her. "Darlin' I'm not here to enjoy this party. I am here to make sure it is kept safe. Please go back to your seat... or wherever and let me do my job," he said in the most pleasant/official tone he could manage.
REally... did he LOOK like he was there to enjoy it? He was a freaking Auror MADE to attend the event against his WILL. |

| HOLISTIC ACTRESS {X O} EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED "I understand" Alicia felt like snapping back at the guy but held her tongue - with the changes at the ministry she had no idea what department she would be placed into next. Chances were she'd be thrown some other place she'd known nothing about and freak a bit.
"Well, if you get hungry or anything you can sit with us." She smiled, her eyes giving off a slightly colder look than before, reading more along the lines of Its not like I wanted to be at this stupid party for a man I don't know - who yelled at me for no reason.

AUROR... ON SECURITY DETAIL... What part of that was so difficult to understand?
Waving his hands dismissively he simply nodded his head and began to scan the crowd. No he did not miss the OoooOoOooOO cold look in her eye. What the hell? He was 40 something... that child's cold look meant nothing to him. He had a ruddy job to do so she had best leave him to it. |

He was 40 something... that child's cold look meant nothing to him. He had a ruddy job to do so she had best leave him to it. Really, it was a bit early to be snooping or asking serious questions about things. Less than half an hour into the party and his mind was already back to churning, trying to connect the dots. And it was one particular person that had him distracted from his distraction, though not fully. He didn't trust the event to take his eyes or attention completely off Arya, but he had parted to approach the rather stiff and stern man.
There was a hesitation to his step as he came to a stop at a respectful distance to the side, not really sure what he was doing. He knew the man was an Auror, or at least that was what his best guess was. It could never hurt to ask, right? Especially given it was one of two possible career choices for himself. "Excuse me, Sir. Sorry for bothering and this might sound like a might bit of a stupid question, but you...are an Auror?" Yup, he sounded like a true genus.

| HOLISTIC ACTRESS {X O} EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED Ali chuckled, smiling as the student walked over and started speaking to the Auror there - now he had to deal with work related questions. She said a quick, "Well, have a good night." Smiling, her eyes looking yet again happy she took a seat again next to Esteban and waited for Jenny to show.

" he waved his hands around rather wildly as he spoke in his thick Southern states drawl. He had wanted to say this JOKE. This ROUSE, but he knew he couldn't do any such thing.
Eyeing the young man from the corner of his eye he noticed a scar. "Why? You interested in the field when you leave Hogwarts, boy?" he asked in a gruff tone, though he was interested in what the kiddo had to say. Quote:

I suppose," Damien answered the... annoying woman.
MEH. Damien wanted nothing more than to be on his boat, alongside Gemini, glass in hand, humming pirate songs and swinging shrunken heads.... The things he did for the Ministry. FEH. |

Well at least he had gotten that part right, though he really wasn't sure what else the man might be. Instantly he was preparing to start asking questions to try and understand things, but the man's own question had his tongue halting and him blinking in surprise. "I...it's one of the options I'm considering after graduation." Another blink and a slight frown. "What...gave it away?" Really, it was probably the question, but then again that question could be leading up to a number of different questions.

"You spotted me out of this crowd and came and asked if I was an Auror... you have a few visible scars that could be from dueling. Not to mention I bet you wear your wand in an arm holster, you look like you are extremely suspicious of everything to do with this... monstrosity, and you are a student of age you look like. When I was your age I did the same thing. Went and started asking questions," Damien said in his slow tone as he adjusted his hat and smiked down at the boy.
Extending his hand he said, "Damien Jackson. 21 Year Veteran within the American and British Ministries." |

Extending his hand he said, "Damien Jackson. 21 Year Veteran within the American and British Ministries." Twenty-one years as an Auror? Crickey this guy had experience.
Returning the handshake with a firm one of his own, he gave the man a respectful bow of his head as well. "Sabel Dakest, Sir. Seventh year Gryffindor from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."
When the introductions were said and done, he retrieved his hand and let it rest at his side, fingers faintly twitching in subconscious anticipation. "I...am rather embarrassed to say the scars are from a rock climbing accident when I was young. Medical attention at Hogwarts has prevented anything serious from the few duels I've participated in." He wouldn't mention his bandaged hand though, that was just sheer clumsiness. And he wouldn't be showing that his wand was in an arm holster given that holster covered the bandaging, so he just nodded to the second observation.
As for the third... "You don't seem too pleased yourself with the event at hand." Careful Sabel, careful. "Points of agitation in company or decorum?" He tried for a small smile, hoping the question would pass off as conversational rather than fishing. But given the attentiveness of the Auror, he was likely to be caught red handed.

| Anyone? *RabidRavenclaw*Nymphadora!*BritneySpearsFanatic* *Eclectic*ZetaTauAlphaPrincess*TexasAngel* Iridesca glanced around and saw the seating area, she knew this was where she needed to rest her feet before everything got started, which wouldn't happen until the man of the hour arrived. She found an empty seat and pushed a stray blue strand of hair behind her ear.
She slowly glanced up and down the table. Sadly she didn't recognize anyone, actually she had realized when walking into this shindig that she hadn't really met tooo many people since accepting a position as an Obliviator. This made her heart sad a little bit but she kept a smile on her face.
She looked down the table and said to no one in particular, "Well, this is just lovely so far. I can't wait to see what surprises are in store for us tonite..." she had to admit that inside she was a little nervous about all of this...it was just a little odd that they were having a celebration like this when they hadn't for the new Minister....but she pushed that thought to the back of her mind as well.

Damien watched the manchild with a slight smirk forming on his lips. "Hear Hogwarts has some.. interesting things going on there every year it seems," he said in a lighter tone. Interesting indeed.
Giving a slight shrug, Damien tugged at the bottom of the RIDICULOUS shirt he was made to wear and nodded his head. "Rock climbing, eh. Interesting." Was the kid a thrill seeker? He'd make a fine Auror if so. Heh.
Damien gave a derisive snort and shook his head slightly. "I am not pleased to be here, participating in this circus. Some of the company is less than desirable to me. What got you mixed up in this mess, kid?" he said in a low tone as he let his eyes scan the area once over before landing back on the kiddo. |

What got you mixed up in this mess, kid?" he said in a low tone as he let his eyes scan the area once over before landing back on the kiddo. "Seems to be so." Sabel muttered in a return sentiment about Hogwarts. The one year things had been relatively peaceful at the school, they had been hell in his life. The place just didn't have a reputation for being 'normal'. But then, in who's books was normal the most desirable?
There was a great deal of relief, when the Auror didn't snap at him for prying into personal business. And while he was curious exactly what he had done right this time, or not done to earn an answer with his fishing, he kept the thoughts at the back of his mind. It could have been anything, and he really didn't want to start pulling up assumptions. So he didn't like the people; he would file that in the back of his mind for some possible use later. "I'm...not actually sure why we're here." Did that mean the Auror didn't know either. The frown deepened as he glanced about the gathering. "To be honest none of us know why we got invited. I've been trying to figure it out and I can't find a commonality that connects us all to this event." Hesitating, he glanced at Damien from the corner of his eye. "The Auror's don't know?" That seemed strange in itself; that a security detail wouldn't know why certain guests were attending. Or maybe that was just it; they knew who, but not why.

Sorry I can't be of more help there. So... you interested in being an Auror, kiddo?" Damien said as he shifted his footing and took another glance around.
He COULD help the kid into Auror training and all if... he got a good recommendation from his DADA Prof and Headmaster and all that. They always needed good team members. And the inquisitive nature of this one would make him a top notch investigator. |

Getting any information from anyone was going to be harder than making orange juice.
Letting out a slow breath, he forced himself to ignore the need to prod further, and resigned himself to answering the man's questions. He could still get answers, just not those that were most pressing at the moment. "It's a toss up between the ITF and the Auror's." Once again his eyes drifted about the attending party. "I'm hoping for the ITF, but it all depends on what happens I suppose." A small smile was offered to the man before him as he shrugged his shoulders. "Life likes to kick up unexpected dust storms, so I haven't been able to firmly focus on just one of the options."

Well... he couldn't very well tell ANYONE what he knew, not even Gemini... and damn sure not a kid from Hogwarts.
"You ever bowl with shrunken heads? If not you should try it some time. My boss and I are part of a league. Real interesting stuff," Damien commented after a long pause where he had begun to hum a little something that sounded like "A Pirates Life For Me".
Oh wait... "Well I will be honest with you. I would go Auror. You still get the chance to travel, undercover work is possible, and you get to work with a team that becomes like your family. Hell. I would lie my life down for my boss here... can't say that I would be willing to do that for any ITF's I met," Damien said to the kid with increasing curiosity. "How did you do on your OWLs? Taken the NEWTs yet? Can you produce a corporeal patronus, and can you do nonverbals?" Damien drilled the kid. |

"I...can't say I've done that type of bowling. Shruken's kinda...creep me out to be honest." Let alone bowling with something that could talk. No, he would stick with muggle bowling thank you.
And then they were back to the Auror's, the topics connected by the 'family like' ties it would seem. He listened quietly, carefully becoming rather nervous with the sudden influx of questions about his abilities. But first thing was first. "I know an ITF member I would give my life for." Different circumstance, but still, not all ITF's were terrible. They seemed just as fuzzily friendly as the Auror's to be honest. It was curious why the man suggested Auror instead though. Probably perception, just as he perceived the ITF as desirable largely because of Tate.
Swallowing, he focussed his attention away from wandering thoughts and back on the questions. "Decent, on my OWLS, Sir. And NEWTS are around the bend I believe." If they weren't he was going to have to do some searching when he got back to Hogwarts. "Some non-verbals, and...I cast a corporal patronus fourth year...for the first time." Had he missed anything?

He figured it was best to keep his opinions about it to himself. He had no idea what anyone else around here thought about this shirt or what seemed to be going on around the Ministry. He was just going to keep his mouth shut and keep an eye on what was going on.
He walked through the tables and looked for someone, anyone that he recognized. Pierre finally decided on a table near the Ministry officials. He recognized most of them, but some were unfamiliar.

"Hi, I'm Alicia Devereaux Department of International Cooperations" she smiled.

"Hi, I'm Alicia Devereaux Department of International Cooperations" she smiled. Pierre looked up as a woman started talking to him. Devereux? Could she be some long lost family member? He thought that he might have misheard. It really wasn't a common last name. Even in France. "Nice to meet you Alicia." His familiar French accent dripped over every word. "I'm Pierre Devereux. Department of Magical Transportation." He was thinking about asking this question, but wasn't so sure that he should. "Seems like we have the same last name. However, I don't think I've ever met you at any family functions." She didn't look like anyone Pierre knew. His family liked to get together every now and then at his grandparent's house. He had never seen this woman there before.

| HOLISTIC ACTRESS {X O} EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED "Really? That is quite fascinating" Ali smiled as she realized they both had a common last name. "I'm the daughter of Jean Paul Devereaux, I had a sister named Aurlie - she's in the hospital now but all's fine." She smiled.
"I've not seen you at any of my family functions either, then again we're quite small just really myself, my mother, step father, sister and a few cousins." She chuckled, "Maybe we're long-lost relatives," she chuckled.
"Where did you go to school?" She asked politely, she was intreagued the same last name and all could mean she had more family than an estranged cousin she'd invited to the party today.
